My strength is returning slowly. More in tune with nerve regen than PT. Try not to worry about things that have not happened yet. Hopefully you are in an acute-phase that will accelerate the timetable. Make sure your b-12 is over 400, excersize to tolerance, get sleep, if you search for Mitochondrial health and do what you know to do, tests will give you a better idea what you are dealing with. I stayed in a panic for many months so I know how answers are important. Patience is always the shortest when the need is the greatest. Good Luck, Ken in Texas.
